HostNameLookups

Synopsis

                     HostNameLookups on|off|double

[server config, within <VirtualHost> or <Directory>]

Enables whether the server should perform hostname lookups on clients instead of simply recording the IP address in the connection logs. If the double option is specified, the server performs a forward and reverse DNS lookup; this ensures the client hostname maps to its IP, as well as the IP mapping to the DNS name. The default is off.
